At least two people have lost their lives and four others have been injured in Lebanon in the last 24 hours due to attacks by the Israeli Army, despite the ceasefire that remains officially in effect. With these new victims, the total number of deaths since March 2 has already risen to 3,304, the date on which clashes between Israeli forces and the militias of the Shiite party Hezbollah resumed, three days after the start of the Iran war.
The most recent report from the Operations Center of Emergencies of the Lebanese Ministry of Health raises the number of dead to 4,304 and the injured to 12,203 throughout the country due to Israeli bombings. Most of the attacks are concentrated in southern Lebanon, where the towns in this partially occupied region suffer constant impacts within the framework of the offensive with which the Israeli Army intends to establish a "security zone" to protect the communities of northern Israel.
The Lebanese government, however, maintains that a significant part of these attacks are indiscriminate and accuses Israel of having deliberately targeted civilians as well as military personnel.
The escalation surrounding Israeli operations in Lebanese territory, coupled with warnings from Tehran that these events violate the pre-agreement reached with Washington and threaten to thwart the peace process in the Middle East, has become one of the main focal points of tension in recent diplomatic contacts and has even led to public clashes between Israel and the United States.
